Mind Training
An Overview on Wheel of Sharp Weapons

The Mahayana path is characterized by the Bodhisattva’s aspiration to become a Buddha for the sake of all beings. The conventional and ultimate aspects involved in developing and enhancing this extraordinary attitude are revealed in a set of teachings, at once practical and radical, known as mind training, or thought transformation (Lojong). Through these ancient tried and tested means, narrow self-centered attitudes are transformed into the mind that knows the freedom of cherishing others more than oneself and how to utilize all the suffering and negative conditions encountered in life as sustenance for the spiritual path.

Geshe Dakpa provides an overview on the text of "Wheel of Sharp Weapons," a classic on mind training.
